Plant for a Beautiful Future - Help our Community’s Children

Late summer, The Gentle Gardener accepts orders for estate and naturalizing quantities of our Autumn bulb collection from our landscape design clients and other gentle folk! We procure our bulbs from the finest growers and handle them with care until cool weather signals planting time. Your prepaid order reserves your bulbs for you until they are available in September and October.

It’s always better to plant bulbs in groups, so we’ve discounted accordingly. Watch for the list of bulbs on our next reservation form-- it will be a small selection of what our growers can provide. If you do not see what you need, or require a quote for even larger quantities, please consult us.

I am happy to announce that this year a portion of the proceeds from our advance Bulb Bookings will support the Boys and Girls Clubs of Orange. The more you plant, the more you help this successful and much-needed organization grow.

Planting bulbs is truly the work of hope for all of us. Plant a garden for peace, for remembrance, for children.

“I long for the bulbs to arrive, for the early autumn chores are melancholy,
but the planting of bulbs is the work of hope and always thrilling.” -- May Sarton
